In the days of Bill Donovan’s OSS, this guy would have accidentally slipped in the shower and cracked his head open a long time ago.

>>including a secret U.S. government tally that puts the Iraqi death toll between 109,000 and 285,000

Weren’t the “objective scientists” at the Lancet pimping a number more like over 600,000?

In any case, it’s hard to make the claim that we are responsible for the vast majority of that number who were killed in Islamic sectarian violence. Another great example of “Islam is what Muslims do”, despite the ALL BUSH’S FAULT! caterwauling by the Left.

Part of the problem is he’s being protected by a foreign government (or 2 or 3). Still, one day he’ll slip up and then he’ll be dead ~ and stripped of all his skin.

The CIA can off anybody they want to anytime they want to.
Maybe what is being “leaked” is what they want to be leaked...

WHY CAN'T THE CIA ASSASSINATE THIS BUM?

Better yet, the traitorous bastard who leaked the documents to WikiLeaks needs to be put in front of a firing squad.

This is a bunch of BS.

If this guy had the real goods on anybody associated with the Dark City he would have been whacked months ago.

I think the guy in the military who gave this intel to these Wiki is a homosexual with a grudge.

So he can’t be punished by the gov...that would be a hate crime against a minority.

"We strongly condemn the unauthorized disclosure of classified information," said Pentagon Press Secretary Geoff Morrell, prior to the documents becoming public.

Uhhhmmmm...then why don't you work a little harder at keeping them classified? Maybe a punishment a little harsher than a "strong condemnation" would make someone think twice about leaking sensitive. I don't know what demoralizes the troops more--knowing that their command can't keep secrets secret or their weak-kneed response to the publication of the same.

Why is it that so much attention is being paid to who is releasing this stuff and none on who is giving it to them?

Has there been any infornmation on who is sabotaging our nation? You think there’d be a frantic search for the Traitor.
